Although the trade hit a snag or fell through at some point on Saturday, many expected the trade to be finalized on Sunday before the game against the Denver Nuggets. That didn’t end up happening and now uncertainty looms with Gasol still having no idea if he’s played his last game with the Lakers.

Regardless of which team acquiring Bynum, the veteran center will be immediately waived. Bynum has reportedly expressed interest in signing with the Los Angeles Clippers or Miami Heat once a free agent after the dust settles.

As for Gasol, the two-time NBA champion may be nothing more than a half-season rental for the Cavs. Gasol has considered the idea of returning to the Memphis Grizzlies in the off-season to play alongside Marc Gasol on his former team to finish his NBA career. Although Gasol may ultimately end up back in Memphis, his immediate future is uncertain to say the least.
